+
+### Quantitative requirements:
+The base scope of work for this project is described in the [Polkadot (Core) Fellowship UX Guidelines](https://hackmd.io/33pI3HvlSkycp-1dQjRLZA) and should cover the following on-chain modules (pallets):
+1. [pallet_ranked_collective](https://docs.rs/pallet-ranked-collective/latest/pallet_ranked_collective/)
+2. [pallet_referenda](https://docs.rs/pallet-referenda/latest/pallet_referenda/)
+3. [pallet_core_fellowship](https://docs.rs/pallet-core-fellowship/latest/pallet_core_fellowship/)
+4. [pallet_salary](https://docs.rs/pallet-salary/latest/pallet_salary/) 
+
+An additional unit of work is the integration of the following on-chain modules:
+
+5. [pallet_treasury](https://docs.rs/pallet-treasury/latest/pallet_treasury/)
+
+### Qualitative requirements: 
+The design and implementation of the UI should ensure the following:
+1. Fellowship members are active in both reviewing the level of expertise of their peers and reporting these evaluations.
+2. A system which enables a fluid and barrierless review-and-report cycle.
+3. A UX that is sufficiently painless.
+
+An additional but critical feature is:
+
+4. A UI that displays stats for [specific voting activity](https://github.com/polkadot-fellows/Evidences/pull/40#discussion_r1668419965) so that the numbers are clear and voters can make a decision in line with the Manifesto.
+

+
+## Application process
+Applicants will need to:
+
+1. Prepare an overview of their proposed product.
+2. Reach out to Anaelle LTD on Matrix to discuss their proposed product before the final shortlisting.
+3. If shortlisted, liaise with Anaelle LTD to prepare a sub-treasury proposal detailing the tasks, costs, and timelines of each milestone. A generic template for Polkadot Treasury proposals is available [here](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1SQ3We_vLahpuLDg1op0ebr3C2CPwneEh2RlQduHfRVY/edit#heading=h.e126djyh5msy). 
+4. Once finalised, publish the sub-treasury proposal as a discussion post on [Subsquare](https://collectives.subsquare.io/discussions) and announce the sub-treasury proposal in the [Fellowship Open Channel](https://matrix.to/#/#fellowship-open-channel:parity.io). After 14 Days, and provided there is no objection, the sub-treasury proposal will be submitted on-chain for voting. 
+5. If approved, [claim the first tranche](https://polkadot.js.org/apps/?rpc=wss%3A%2F%2Fsys.ibp.network%2Fcollectives-polkadot#/extrinsics/decode/0x410600000000) of payment. 
+6. Work on the sub-treasury proposal and post regular updates on the original discussion post on [Subsquare](https://collectives.subsquare.io/discussions). 
+7. Submit a report for each stage of milestone completion to request the next tranche of payment, until the project is complete.
+
+**Important note: All milestones and deliverables must be completed within 3 months of the initial on-chain approval.**
